Abstract: We conjecture that bounded generalised polynomial functions cannot be generated by finite automata, except for the trivial case when they are ultimately periodic. Using methods from ergodic theory, we are able to partially resolve this conjecture, proving that any hypothetical counterexample is periodic away from a very sparse and structured set. In particular, we show that for a polynomial with at least one irrational coefficient (except for the constant one) and integer , the sequence is never automatic. We also prove that the conjecture is equivalent to the claim that the set of powers of an integer is not given by a generalised polynomial.
